Procedure is a bit hit and miss with regards to success but the procedure goes like this:

- Put the power on but do not start the engine.
- Floor the throttle for 30-60 seconds
- Keep the throttle to the floor and put the power OFF
- Release the throttle and wait 2 minutes.

During the 2 minutes you should feel or hear some kind of mechanical sound. That should tell you the reset is complete.

I used to use this procedure on my E90 335i automatic, but would these same steps be okay on a G01 X3?

I don't know why exactly, but I think there's something different in the Start/Stop button press sequences on this car? I think it's one press to 'ignition', and then next press to start?
